My favorite subject in middle school and high school was…reading and the humanities! I loved getting lost in an incredible story, debating themes and various story elements in class, and learning about history and the world.
I loved Indiana University because…college was an incredible experience that allowed me to explore new ideas, spread my wings and push my limits, and embrace my independence.
On a day off, you’ll find me…taking a strength class and spending time with my two young children, Wilder and Lennox. Our favorite weekend activities are going to the park, the library, or running around our backyard. If I’m lucky, I might get a date night with my husband, Lucas, at our favorite local restaurant! I also love vintage shopping, reading, and going on fun adventures together with my family.

When it comes to favorite authors and books…it might be the eternal preschool teacher in me, but I am a big believer that a fabulously written, quality picture book exists for virtually any lesson, feeling or situation in life. Some favorites are Say Hello by Jack and Michael Foreman, Sometimes I’m Bombaloo by Rachel Vail, Sulwe by Lupita Nyong’o and any of the Elephant & Piggie series by Mo Willems.
If I could give any advice to my adolescent self, it would be…listen to that inner voice! She will be a huge asset to you always, so worry less about that outside noise and try to turn more inward. Also, slow down! There is a never-ending supply of fascinating topics you can explore and truly gain knowledge – not just memorizing facts to do well on a test or report card. You’re going to wish you appreciated those opportunities more when you get older!
In my free time, you’ll find me…at a concert, walking the dogs, sitting in the backyard with music or a book, on a sideline of a field or gym for my kids, binging shows, looking at places to travel or changes I want to make to the house or sleeping-in!
What sets Nurturing Wisdom apart is…is the extraordinary level of care. The Nurturing Wisdom way is true wrap around support at every level. From the admin team to the tutors and students and their families, you will find humans going out of their way to support and empower other humans.

A tip I’d give to a student to make the most of tutoring would be… that you get out of it what you put into it. If you put in time and energy, and bring a positive attitude, you’ll achieve so much!
